NEW YORK — U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders has a simple message for New York City voters who don’t like President Donald Trump: Vote for Mayor Bill de Blasio (dih BLAH’-zee-oh).<\/p>\n

The Vermont senator stoked liberal passions nationwide as a Democratic candidate in last year’s presidential contest and stepped into New York politics for a day on Monday. He cast the Democratic first-term mayor as the antidote to what he calls the \u201cun-American\u201d leadership of the Republican president.<\/p>\n

Sanders says Trump is trying to divide people based on the colour of their skin or their religion \u201cin an extremely un-American, ugly and almost unprecedented way.\u201d He says de Blasio is leading New York in a way to bring people together.<\/p>\n

Sanders’ appearance comes as de Blasio works to energize voters eight days before the election.<\/p>\n

Trump has called Sanders \u201ccrazy.\u201d<\/p>\n
